Hi,
To try and shed some more light into the issue, can you describe what
the problem really is and how would we fix the driver correctly? By
"work or not", do you mean the fix works with some devices but not with
some other devices, with some received signal strengths but not some, or
something else? Do you think there's a risk the fix will break something?
For me, without the fix, some of the major channels from the transmitter
in the second largest city of Finland are missing, in other words the
fix would remove a major showstopper. Based on Carlos's note, the
situation in UK is something similar.
It's of course best to aim for the best possible fix, and if we have
enough information to do that, that's of course preferable over this
one. However, if there isn't enough information, and there's no risk of
the proposed fix breaking something, perhaps this patch should be put in
as an interim fix and add some notes somewhere that a better fix is
preferable.

Hello,
You can try to fix it like that, but it is not proper way. It is kinda
of hack which can just work or not. Proper way is to fix that tuner
driver correctly and if it was used with zl10353 demoed fix that
driver too to support IIRC IF/RF agc settings.
regards
Antti

The patch fixes frequency selection for some UHF frequencies e.g.
channel 32 (562 MHz) on the qt1010 tuner. For those in the UK,
this now means they can tune to the BBC channels (tested on a Compro
Vista T750F).
One example of problem reports of the bug this fixes can be read at
